Daaamnn guys! Sorry about the absence! I've been working on crosses and doing a bunch of studying.. I've always believed in regenerative growing but this test grow is convincing me of its truth. Sooo.. I've never grown out any of the Pinky's in smaller pots, and Always organic with water only.. Always grew a few at a time in 15 gal pots. The plants that are having deficiency issues all seem to be in smaller pots and being fed nutrients. The concept of regenerative growing is that the seeds/offspring will be best suited for the same grow style the parents were grown in. They will acclimate better to that style 1st and foremost. That's the basic level concept. So it would make sense that these kids would be sensitive to liquid nutrients as no F gen was ever fed liquid nutes. Im thinking that might be the case here. The plants in bigger pots seem to be well adapted and thriving. The one that
@Jpkindbud has in the 5gal bucket is dead on what I expected to see as far as size and structure. I'm also seeing much more purple than Pink. I didn't really expect that. I've had a few of you comment on the final product and no complaints yet. Im hoping that stays course. Everyone is doing or has done, a great job. It really is an information overload when you put your breeders hat on. I can't image how the big boys do it.. Testing hundreds of plants at the same time.. It makes me realize how little I know in the grand scheme of things, lol.
You guys will have first shot at testing the next cross, Tyrone Stomper x 3 bears Og f2 fems. Im growing out a few more f1 fems now and will pollinate the best one. So by end of summer we should be ready to give her a go.
Again, can't thank you guys enough for allowing my little creating to grow in your gardens!
